Blimp Road Boat Ramp?

Some ramps are a little tougher to handle than others. Blimp road is a challenge as this view of the end of the ramp shows.

Just driving up you may think it is worth a shot. On a high tide with bay grass covering the end of the ramp it looks like a normal ramp.

Here is another view.
Parking is available most of the time for some reason.


Blimp road is mainly used by kayakers, but a few flats boat and skiff owners with four wheel drive vehicles do use the ramp. This ramp in not recommended for rookies.

Little Torch Key: State Road 4 Ramp

Parking is limited at many Keys ramps, SR4 has ample parking.
This ramp has plenty of room to maneuver and a nice view.

This view of the end of the ramp show the trailer stop is in great shape.

The State Road 4 Ramp is highly usable. Make a note that Bay grass on the ramps makes it slippery. It is a good idea to have a rake handy to make your launch and recovery easier.
